Almost forgot to bring the one main prop that the commercial NEEDS

Image
 On Tuesday the 28th, our group started the filming for our commercial. We were not planning to film everything on the 28th but we had already finished our storyboard blog and we couldn't just sit in class and do nothing so we went out to film. I was the main actor of the commercial so I didn't really have to bring anything special for the filming. I brought some clothes to change into and that's it. When we left the class to go film I first went to the bathroom to change into my athletic clothes. Once we got down to the track we were planning how to do our CLAMPS and mis-en-scenes. After we figured everything out we started doing preparations. To give the affect of dehydration I ran 3 laps around the track to make myself sweat so when filming started it would seem more realistic. During the filming process we had way too many bloopers. Jibril was always laughing and Andy accidentally got hit with a water bottle in the head. The hardest scene to film was the final one. Jibr

How our group made the storyboard

  Scene 1-  Max is running on the school track in athletic clothing. The  sun's  heat is blazing down on him.     Scene 2-  Max starts to run slower on the track. He's full of sweat and very dehydrated. He's craving something to drink.     Scene 3-  Max pulls a bottle of Dasani water out from his backpack. He chugs it but  immediately  spits it out. He looks at the bottle with disgust on  his face, seeing that it is Dasani.     Scene 4-  Max  throws the bottle of Dasani water in the trash because of the disgusting taste.  Suddenly he  sees a flash of light  and looks  at  the sky.     Scene 5-   He sees  G od flying down with something in his hand. “Hello my son, this is for you.” Then  God  hands  M aximus the holy  Zephyr hill s  water.     Scene 6-   G o d   f lies away and Maximus  immediately  starts to  chug  the Zephyrhills water.  The n   the  camera zooms out and the logo fades in.     *In scene 5 while God is speaking to Max there is some choir music playing in th

Me and my groups research

  My group is doing a Zephyrhills commercial, in the commercials there are usually  water springs and actors enjoying the water.   In Zephyrhills commercials people usually see actors drinking water or camera shots of Florida springs.   Props include  Zephyrhills   water bottles,  water springs, and lots of trees.   The appearance of the springs and actors are usually calm and enjoying a bottle of water.   The music in the commercials is soothing and giving a slow-paced  vibe ,  similar to  how the water  flows  from the springs.     The founder of the city Zephyrhills wanted a name as clear as the water there . That is  why he named it  Zephyrhills   so people would know that they are getting gentle breezes and rolling hills. The Slogan is the city of pure water which  shows that  Zephyrhills   the  purest and most delicious water.   In the commercial it shows videos of springs and pure water before showing the Zephyrhills logo so you can tell that it is a Zephyrhills commercial befor

Get to know my friends

 I don't know how but i'm supposed to write 20 sentences about my classmates. The first one i'm gonna be talking about is Jibril Alkishawi otherwise known as Jibi which is how I will be referring to him. I've known him since fourth grade and we have been friends ever since. We went to the same elementary school and middle school. It seems lucky that he's in the same high school and same class as me. We've been in the same class for sixth and eighth grade. I've worked on projects with Jibi before so I know that he focuses on work and doesn't leave it for the last minute. Me and Jibril usually have sleepovers on the weekend and play video games. We also watch movies and film stupid skits with each other in them. I can consider him one of my best friends. Now moving on to Andy Hernandez-Vazquez. I call him Ronny because of an inside joke so thats what im gonna be calling him. Iv'e known Ronny since last year since he was in my Global Perspectives class.

Hey guys my name is Max welcome to my blog! I'm 15 years old, in 10th grade, and i'm in the as level of Media Studies. I joined the class thinking it would be an easy A but looking at it now I think im going to have to put a lot of effort in. I've been playing guitar for the past 2 years, sometimes stepping out for little crowds and making some bank. I have a dog named Rocco and I love him very much. My mother is from Russia and my dad is from Romania so I speak 3 languages which has been useful a lot of times. In school I take AICE english, algebra 2, AICE Media Studies, Keyboard, Pre AICE World History, Study hall, Spanish 2, and AICE Marine Science. My favorite class is study hall because well... study hall. My least favorite class is Marine Science because thats the class where I take the most tests and do the most work. My favorite artist is J.Cole. My favorite type of food is sushi but sushi is usually tied with Chinese. On the weekends I usually play video games and
